AFTERMARKET PRODUCTS AND YOUR VEHICLE’S WARRANTY Many of our customers ask, “Will your product void my vehicle manufacturer’s warranty?” While the answer is straightforward from a legal standpoint, we also want to educate our customers (and after-market consumers) on some industry realities and offer some common sense precautions to minimize your risk. Consumers of aftermarket products are protected by The Federal Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act. The Act states that if something breaks on your car and you take it in for warranty repair, the dealer must honor your warranty unless they can prove that whatever modifications you have added to your car actually caused the problem. Please keep in mind that towing in anything higher than level two and hard driving in levels four and five are not recommended. While as a consumer, you have strong legal protection with regards to your vehicle’s warranty, there is also a practical reality that different automotive manufacturers and dealers have greatly varying views on aftermarket products, in particular those that produce horsepower, such as performance enhancement chips, modified intake manifolds, or aftermarket exhaust systems. There are dealers and manufacturers out there that will use the presence of a horsepower upgrade to void your vehicle’s warranty. They will do this regardless of whose product you are using. Any aftermarket company that does not acknowledge this is misleading you. The bottom line is that while the law protects the consumer and provides for enforcement of the warranty, it is very difficult for most people to hire an attorney and fight a voided warranty. Edge recommends that you always disconnect and remove your module and monitor when you take your vehicle to a dealer for warranty work in order not to interfere with Diagnostic equipment. This warranty is void for any new products purchased through auction websites. Warranty is valid only for new products purchased through Authorized Dealers (proof of purchase required for all warranty claims).

IMPORTANT NOTE: All Edge modules and programmers are built to operate with OEM calibrations. When you take your vehicle to a service center they may, by your request or otherwise, update your vehicles calibrations. Therefore it is important that you return your vehicle to stock before taking it in for service. Edge updates its active products (i.e. those currently being manufactured) to work effectively with updated OEM calibrations. However, this process can take some time as Edge is not always made aware of calibration changes made by the OEM. In the case of discontinued products, Edge cannot ensure that your unit will work effectively if you take your vehicle to a dealership and you are given, by your request or otherwise, a new calibration (This only applies to discontinued products).

About the Chevy/GM Juice Thank you for purchasing the Power Edge Juice Module for the Chevy/GM Duramax Diesel®. The Juice module has been developed and produced from the highest quality materials available to ensure the best performance for years to come. If you have any questions, please contact Edge Products. We will be very happy to answer your questions about our complete product line. The Juice Module is an add-on Engine Control Module (ECM) for the Duramax® Engine that offers additional features not available with the factory setup. Since it is an add on ECM, it uses all the factory data, and then enhances the factory settings to optimize your truck’s performance. These features include: • Engine temperature monitoring and power increase from the Juice module as engine reaches operating temperature • Four selectable power level settings for Normal and Tow/Haul transmission modes (5 on-the-fly selectable power settings with the Attitude) • Transmission slip monitoring - If any transmission slip is detected power is decreased to eliminate transmission slippage • Smart power control during torque converter lockup to allow a smooth, easy torque converter clutch lock-up The Juice module offers a large power increase over stock throughout the rpm range, but the power is most noticeable in the midrange rpm’s. This greatly improves drivability and towing performance. Transmission downshifting is greatly reduced, especially while passing or towing. The Juice also regulates power delivery and timing based on engine temperature. This means that while the engine temperature is below 160° F no additional fueling or timing is delivered. At 160° F the module begins delivering fuel at 50% of the calculated additional fuel, and the percentage increases as the engine temperature increases, until at full engine temperature (174° F) the Juice delivers 100% of the calculated additional fuel. At full engine temperature the Juice also starts modifying timing.

Chevy/GM Juice Getting Connected

Supplied Items: 1. Power Edge Juice Module 2. Three Wire Ties 3. Two Velcro Strips Required Tools: None Please read these instructions completely so that you understand each step prior to installation. The Power Edge Juice Module This picture shows the Power Edge Juice Module with the harness cable and Edge Attitude Display wiring (Attitude instructions on pg. 13)

Connected

These two connectors are EGT thermocouple connections.

This cable is where the optional Edge Attitude Display module gets connected.

9

Harness Connector – Your Juice module may be equipped with a harness that can be disconnected at the Juice module itself (See figure 1A). It is important to make sure that your juice module is always connected to the harness when the wiring harness is connected to the truck, otherwise the truck may not run properly, or may trip engine “codes.”

FIGURE 1A

Mounting the Juice Module 1. The Power Edge Juice Module can mount on top of or to the side of the black plastic fuse box cover located on the driver’s side fender. Adhere the module using the supplied Velcro, allowing enough harness movement for removal of the cover. Connecting the Harness 2. Disconnect both stock connectors by squeezing the ears on the backside of the connector and pulling the gray lever. 3. Gently insert the Juice connectors and lock in place with the gray levers, and then gently connect the stock connectors to the other end of the Juice connectors.

10

Notice: Use caution when inserting connector bodies. If the connector does not slide smoothly, remove the connector, inspect the pins, and retry installation. Final Inspection 4. Recheck all connections for a properly secure installation. Using the supplied wire ties, secure the wiring harness to prevent possible damage. 5. Start the engine. The engine should start and run like a stock truck. If the engine does not start or run properly, turn off the motor, remove the keys from the ignition, then remove the juice module and inspect the pins inside both connectors. Straighten pins or clear foreign material from the pins and connector surfaces, then re-install the connectors. If failure conditions still exist, contact your dealer or Edge Products, LLC. When trying to restart, make sure that the key has been turned off for at least 10 seconds before cranking the engine.

11

Using the Juice Adjusting Power Levels The Juice has four power levels. The Attitude module allows five levels. The Juice module was designed to allow the user to select a power level for Normal operating mode, and either the same or a different power level for Tow/Haul mode. NOTE: If you have the Attitude installed, the following procedure does NOT apply. Power levels are changed using the Attitude. 1. Set the Parking Brake 2. Turn key on without starting the engine (engine must not be running). 3. Select the desired transmission mode to set the power level for (Normal or Tow/Haul). 4. Place gear selector in the gear corresponding to desired power level (D=4, 3=3, 2=2, 1=1, R=stock). 5. Press accelerator to the floor two times, completely releasing the pedal each time. 6. Return gear selector to Park and start the engine. 7. Press the Tow/Haul button twice. This causes the Juice module to “remember” the level setting for the mode. Power Level Confirmation To confirm the power level that is selected: 1. Place gear selector in Park with your foot off of the accelerator while engine is idling 2. Set the Parking Brake 3. Select Normal or Tow/Haul mode, depending upon the transmission mode power setting you wish to confirm 4. Place gear selector to reverse, neutral, reverse, then back to park. P-R-N-R-P 5. The engine will rev to coincide with the power level selected, revving 4 times for level 4, 3 times for level 3, and so on

12

It is recommended that you use the Tow/Haul transmission mode while towing. This provides torque converter lockup in gears 2-5 reducing transmission heat, and also raising the shift rpm threshold to keep the rpm’s higher. It is recommended that you maintain engine rpm above 1800 while towing. While towing, the Juice module allows the engine to pull many grades in the mid rpm’s rather than having to downshift and pull them in the high rpm’s. This provides for lower EGT (Exhaust Gas Temperature) with the same power output. EGT rises significantly with rpm--especially above 2500. It is highly recommended that you install an EGT gauge while using the Power Edge Juice. You can also opt to limit the EGT with the Attitude monitor to maintain lower EGT levels. It is recommended while towing you use power levels 1

or 2 due to EGT and transmission stress

13

Power Gains The following power gains are representative of an actual test vehicle. These gains were measured on a Super Flow Dyno at an altitude of 4400 ft above sea level, and represent power delivered to the rear wheels of the test truck. The only modification made to the test truck was the addition of the Power Edge Juice module. Power gains may vary somewhat on a different vehicle or in different geographic settings. Horsepower Torque Level 1: 40 150 Level 2: 60 180 Level 3: 75 220 Level 4: 90 250 Warning: It is strongly advised that you do not combine, or “stack” chips to gain more horsepower.

Making Sense of It All This section is designed to help you To understand how the additional power will change your driving experience as well as help you figure out what power level will best suit your driving style; The first thing you will probably notice, especially if this is your first time driving a diesel truck with a performance module, is that this is a whole different animal. You will experience more power, quicker take-offs, better passing and acceleration, and even better fuel economy. Power level one is specifically designed to maximize fuel economy improvements. (if you can put off the little guy on your shoulder telling you to ‘step on it hard’). If you are towing, the beauty of the extra power the Edge module delivers is that not only will be able to maintain speed going up a hill, but the added power will also keep you in a higher gear, so your transmission will not keep “hunting” for lower gears. We recommend level one or level two for towing applications. Only use level two if you are towing a light load. The remaining power levels are designed to match fueling with any additional upgrades you may have done to your vehicle. Level 3 is as far as you should go on a stock truck and should never be used while towing. Level 3 is designed to take advantage of the built-in safety margins the manufacture needs to add in order to make sure your vehicle can tow at its maximum capacity. When driven responsibly, and used with an EGT gauge or the Attitude monitor, level 3 will not stress the stock engine or transmission as long as you are not towing. Levels four and five are race levels and are designed to be used with upgraded drive trains. If you have modified your injectors, upgraded the transmission, changed turbos or performed other similar enhancements, levels four and five will match fueling to the additional performance created by these upgrades. On a stock truck, it is possible to overstress the engine and transmission while driving in levels four and five.

15

EGTs: What they mean and why EGT stands for exhaust gas temperature, and is the single most important indicator of how a diesel engine is performing. Unlike a gasoline motor, a diesel motor will continue to make power as more fuel is added. As more fuel is added, heat will be generated until the motor just gets too hot and things start to melt. This is a situation you want to avoid. Exhaust gas temperature is the ideal measurement of how hot the motor is, since temperature fluctuations in exhaust gas are almost instantaneous. Just so you know, it is possible to generate excessive EGT on a stock truck, particularly if you are towing. This is why we always recommend installing an EGT gauge and we built the Attitude monitor, which monitors EGT and will automatically defuel your truck when EGTs get too high. In our experience 1350 degrees is about as high as you want to let your EGTs go. Keep in mind, the stress on your engine created by the heat is a function of both temperature and time. A brief spike to 1400 that lasts a second is not that big a deal. Pulling up a hill for several minutes at 1400 is far worse. As you drive your truck in the various power settings, keep your eye on the EGTs. Depending on how you drive and where you drive, you may find a particular power level is more suitable to your power needs. The Juice Module and your Transmission The automatic transmission has a fluid-filled clutch-like device called a torque converter. This device uses the spinning motion of the motor to drive the transmission which drives your wheels. As the truck speed stabilizes, the torque converter engages a mechanical connection which locks the two halves of the torque converter, so the output shaft is going the same speed as the input shaft. This mechanical linking of the two halves is called Transmission Lock-up. If the motor produces too much power, this mechanical lock-up can start to slip. When this slippage occurs, the Juice module reduces the power output to allow the transmission to function properly. This is a great future that provides an extra level of protection for your vehicle. Please keep in mind however, that if you run in level 4 or 5, the additional power is so great that it is possible to overstress a stock Allison transmission if you drive too hard.

Technical Support Edge takes a great deal of pride in the quality of our customer service. If you have any questions or concerns about your Juice module, please feel free to call us at 888-360-3343.

Transmission Relearning The Allison transmission is a “Smart” transmission. That means that it pays attention to how smoothly the transmission is changing gears, and modifies the shifting to improve drivability. When the motor delivers more power (by adding the Juice module), the transmission has to ‘re-learn’ how to shift. After first installing the Juice module, you may notice rough shifting. The best way to re-teach the transmission is to set the truck in the power level you will be using most of the time. Then set out to drive, some city, some highway, varying the driving and the speed. Make sure that you shift through each gear 20 to 30 times. A good rule of thumb would be 100 to 200 miles. Remember that the truck must go through each gear 20 to 30 times. You will notice the shifting becoming better, and your truck responding better to the additional power as you go through the learning cycle.

About the Attitude

The Attitude allows you to monitor the performance of your vehicle’s vital engine components and output values. The following parameters can be displayed on the main Attitude screen:

• Boost

• EGT (exhaust gas temperature)

• Barometric PSI

• Speed MPH

• Engine Coolant Temp

• 1Gear (torque converter lock)

• Intake Air Temp

• Load %

• 2Slip %

• Transmission Temp

• Throttle %

• Turbo Boost PSI

• RPM

• Backdown % (Percent back down due to high EGT) One of the most powerful features of the Attitude is the option to monitor the EGT of your vehicle and automatically lower the power output to maintain an EGT below a maximum desired level. The Attitude will also alert you both visually and audibly at pre-set engine parameter thresholds and also record the maximum values reached in each of the parameters.

1 A lock symbol will appear next to the current gear on the Attitude display if the torque converter is locked. 2 Slip is measured across the Torque Converter and is only available when the Torque Converter is locked.

Chevy/GM Attitude Getting Connected The Attitude monitor connects under the hood to the Edge Juice module. Follow these steps to install the Attitude: 1. Place your Attitude monitor on the dash of your vehicle approximately where you want it installed and, with the driver’s door open, feed the cable through the open door, and into the engine compartment via the slot near the hood hinge. 2. Determine where you want to attach the Attitude mounting bracket and insert it into your dashboard. The bracket fits well in the seam of the dash board by separating the seam slightly and sliding in the bottom portion of the bracket until it snaps into place (see figure 1). The following pictures demonstrate how to best mount the Attitude with the new bracket.

Figure 1

Figure 2 3. Connect the Attitude to your Edge Juice module by snapping together the cables with the green connections (see figure 3). Secure any excess cable to prevent entanglement with moving engine parts.

The bracket fits well in the seam of the dash board by separating the seam slightly and sliding in the bottom portion of the bracket until it snaps into place.

After the bracket is mounted, use the supplied two sided tape to secure the Attitude to the bracket

Figure 3

4. It is necessary to tap a small hole into your exhaust manifold to insert the EGT sensor. The EGT probe must be mounted before the turbo to operate properly. Drill the hole using a 5/ 16 or a 21/64” drill bit, then tap it with an 1/8” NPT tap (see tip on figure 5). Once the hole is drilled and tapped, run the motor at idle for 10 to 15 seconds to clear the few remaining shavings from the manifold. Once the engine has been run, screw in the brass fitting and insert the EGT sensor by sliding it into the hole (see figure 4) and tightening the back end brass fittings.

Figure 4

The Attitude cable attaches to the Edge Juice module under the hood.

This is the EGT cable that gets tapped into the exhaust manifold.

This connection only exists on older Juice modules that were modified to accept the Attitude.

31

Juice Configuration

The Attitude allows you to configure the Juice module in a variety of ways. To change the Juice configurations, perform the following steps:

1. Press the [Menu] button until the Setup screen appears:

2. Select the Juice Configuration option and press [Enter]. The

following screen appears:

3. Select the desired option and press [Enter]. The following are

descriptions of each of the Juice Configuration options available: Juice Configuration Options

• Max EGT Set Point

• Low Boost Fueling Adjust

• Shift Defuel Setting

• Tire Size

32

Max EGT Set Point As the exhaust gas temperature approaches the EGT set point, a percentage of defueling occurs. This percentage is represented by the backdown value you can display on the screen. The percentage represents the amount of defueling that is occurring due to the max EGT value being reached. In other words, fueling is decreased at higher percentages. When this value reaches 100% the fueling delivered by the Juice module will be totally disabled. However, stock fueling will allow the truck to reach its stock EGT levels which may exceed the preset Max EGT Set Point which you set in the Attitude. Important Note: Any other high performance modifications in addition to the Juice can allow the fueling to exceed stock EGT levels even after 100% defueling by the Attitude is reached, which may result in detrimental EGT levels.

After selecting the Max EGT Set Point option from the Juice Configuration screen (previous steps), the following screen appears:

2. Change the Max EGT set point by pressing the up and down arrow

keys to select the maximum temperature that you want the exhaust gas temperature to reach, then pressing [Enter]. When the exhaust gas temperature reaches this value, the power delivery will be retarded so as not to allow the temperature to exceed this set value.

The backdown percent represents the amount of defueling that is occurring when the max EGT level is reached.

33

Disabling Backdown at Set EGT There are times you may want to disable the EGT backdown feature for a limited period such as in a competition setting. For whatever the reason you can disable the EGT backdown for a period of 1-120 minutes.

Warning: Disabling this feature could lead to dangerous EGT levels.

To remove the option that backs down the power at a set EGT point, perform the following steps:

1. Make sure the Attitude is set to view the EGT level as one of the engine parameters.

2. When you are viewing EGT as one of the engine parameters, press [Enter] twice quickly and the following screen will appear:

3. The number on this screen represents the number of minutes the EGT Backdown feature will be disabled. Press the up or down arrow keys to select the desired number of minutes you would like this feature disabled. (The number of minutes you do NOT want your power decreased because of high EGT levels.)

This number is the number of minutes you want to disable the EGT backdown feature.

34

4. After you have selected the number of minutes you would like the

EGT backdown option disabled, press [Enter]. The screen will return to your previous view mode, and the Juice power level indicator will flash until the designated time for disabling has been reached. When the Juice power level indicator quits flashing, your set max EGT backdown level will go into effect.

When EGT backdown is disabled, the Juice power level display flashes.

35

Low Boost Fueling / Low End Responsiveness Adjustment After selecting the Low Boost Fueling Adj option from the Juice Configuration screen (previous steps), the following screen appears:

Select the power level for which you want to adjust the low boost fueling and press Enter. When you press Enter, the following screen appears allowing you to select the Low Boost Fueling Adjustment level that will be unique to that level and every time you select that power level the fueling adjustment will be set to what you chose on this screen.

Adjusting the fuel at low boost allows you to adjust the response and smoke output before the turbocharger builds boost pressure in the intake. Select level 1 for the lowest level of response and smoke at low boost, and select level 5 for the highest level. You will see a significant change in vehicle response and smoke depending upon which level you select. To leave this screen, press the [Menu] button multiple times.

36

Shift Defuel Setting With this option the amount of fuel delivered to the engine during the shift point is reduced—thus decreasing torque during the shift point. This will cause less wear on the transmission—and result in overall improved drivability.

Transmission Setup Option Descriptions Defueling at locked (when the torque converter is locked) shift points reduces the torque output by the engine and allows the torque converter clutch to lock after the shift. Defuel all locked shifts With this option, when the torque converter is locked the amount of fuel at the shift point is reduced—thus decreasing torque during the shift point and allowing the torque converter clutch to lock. This will cause less wear on the transmission—and result in overall improved drivability. Defuel 4-5 locked shift This option provides a decrease in torque output at the shift point between gears 4 and 5, thus decreasing torque during the shift point and allowing the torque converter clutch to lock. This will cause less wear on the transmission—and result in overall improved drivability. No defuel on shifts This option provides no decrease in fuel during shift points. Power will be delivered throughout all of the shift points resulting in quicker more responsive shifting.

37

Tire Size If your vehicle has stock tires, there is no need to change the value on this screen. After selecting the Tire Size option from the Juice Configuration screen (previous steps), the following screen appears:

The numbers on this screen represent the circumference of your tire. Adjust the tire size by pressing the up/down arrow keys. The table below will help you determine your wheel circumference by matching your tire size with the sizes listed. For example, if your tire size is 285/ 65/ 18R, the value (circumference) you enter into the Attitude is 2599.0.
